Garret

Name: Garret Kires
Tier: D
Gender: Male.
Sexuality: Hetero.
Age + Birthday: 19, 1st of June
Nationality: Zou
Race: Human
Specialization: Intelligence. Water type.

Personality: While normally outwardly friendly, at heart Garret does not have sympathy for others. It is his belief that everyone should take matters into their own hands, and that those who don't naturally deserve the hand they are given. Furthermore, as a consequence of his belief and lack of sympathy, he has developed a cruel nature over time. This most often manifests in his willingness to overlook starving children on the streets, wounded citizens needing assistance and other such situations. In few cases, his cruelty extends outside a passive nature and takes the form of a more aggressive manner where he might actively commit an atrocity, though this rarely shows and he does so only to further an objective. At times, Garret has shown an interest in guiding those who have also begun to fight against the oppressive nature of the White Rukh. He is still unsympathetic, however, and as such it is fickle on whether or not he wishes to show such guidance.

Towards those that earn his ire, Garret keeps a mental list of. While he focuses on objective based goals for his ambitions, he will take the opportunity to 'get even' with somebody who has slighted him if it does not create a conflict that would hinder his over-arcing goals. This could possibly equate to him holding a grudge for a long period of time until the time came that he was in a position of power where the other's influence did not matter.


Likes: Garret is fond of those who are independent, especially in cases when they are able to use a position of power to enforce their beliefs. This is simply due to the nature of such individuals conforming to how he believes the world should be.

He likes power itself, and the idea that surrounds it. Though this feeling borders on desire, it is not something that blinds him to his environment.

He has become fond of seeing others steel their will and fight the destiny of White Rukh, rising to take responsibility for their own lives.

Garret enjoys food, though traditional Zou food is his favorite. When he was younger, food was an issue, and he has all the more appreciation for it now.


Dislikes: Being lost, whether it is in a conversation, in travel or in what to do. Garret's strong belief in guiding and controlling his own destiny in life has made him dislike being lost, and uncertainty in general.

In much the same vein of thinking, faulty equipment and, more specifically, those that sell it have a particular spot in Garret's heart. It's not a warm and fuzzy spot, either.

Occasionally there will be those who do not choose to fight the destiny of White Rukh, but still beg for assistance. That type of reliance on others disgusts Garret.


Phobias: Garret's strongest fear is being in an enclosed area with others. It is more than simple claustrophobia, and stems from when he was younger. Due to a trauma he suffered at the hands of his uncle, the thought of being in closed-in space makes Garret feel uncomfortable. A normal sized room is not such a problem, but if it is possible to avoid the situation he will.

A much more minor fear would be his fear of warriors. While it is not enough to cause him pause, he takes their abilities seriously.


Aspirations: With the final goal of being the master of his own fate, Garret is always seeking to climb to the heights of power. Garret aims to explore his connection with his Rukh, and the strength and skill in which he can use it. His intentions are to gain authority and trust with The True Emperor, Gao Yuan Zu. With that trust, he intends to make a judgement on whether or not he should go further with his ambitions and ultimately aim for the Zou throne.

Weight: 77kg
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Brown
Height: 5'10 (179 cm)
Rukh Alignment: Black Rukh
Special Traits: Garret looks rather plain, beyond any ceremonial outfit he might wear. It would be easy to say most people forget about him, unless he had done something particularly memorable.
Appearance: Garret has a small build, and looks fairly nondescript. While he is wearing clothing from his homeland, the Empire of Zou, he stands out due to the type of cloth and the looks that are drastically different. As such, in public he most often wears clothing from the country he is in. If concealing his identity is necessary, he will also use a cloak with a hood. When Garret walks, he does so at a steady pace while keeping his head level. There are those who look down while walking, but Garret only looks to the ground in order to make note of his surroundings.



History: Garret's story begins when he was just a young child, a story he was too young to remember. His parents were believed to be a part of a dissident group within the Empire, and were slain alongside the other rebels in a public execution. Garret’s uncle took custody of him while he was still a child and unable to understand the ways of the world. Being a man of few scruples, Takegawa Ushio, Garret's uncle, often partook in drinking, gambling and other distasteful hobbies. During this time, Garret was known as Takegawa Iatsu.

Iatsu never knew his parents too well, and due to this he was never truly bothered about the circumstances that lead to his parent's death. His uncle would never let him forget, however, who it was that had killed his parents; the Emporer Dao Shi Zu and his followers. Ushio often became enraged for reasons unknown to Iatsu, and took this rage out on Iatsu. As Iatsu grew older, Ushio's drinking habit became worse and worse, though strangely the physical beatings began to decrease. In exchange, he began to switch between verbally abusing Iatsu, or warning Iatsu about Dao Shi Zu. During these years, Iatsu learned to hold back his tears and retain his poise. Instead of becoming wary of the Emperor, hatred began festering in him against Ushio.

One night, Ushio came back late in the evening, smelling of alcohol. He was obviously worried, but when he looked over to Iatsu, a strange look came to him. Ushio walked up to Iatsu and slammed him to the wall before hoisting him over his shoulder and carrying him to a room.

<3 hours later>

Ushio lay in his bed, asleep. Iatsu was still in pain. As his wits came back he became more and more upset. While cursing his life a strange feeling overcame him. A thought, almost alien, whispered through his mind. Simply kill the beast lying on that bed; he is asleep, and defenseless. Iatsu sneaked into the kitchen, taking care not to awaken his uncle. When he returned, there was a knife in hand. Iatsu slammed the blade down as hard as he could at his Uncle's throat. The blood began spurting as Ushio's eyes flew open and his hands desperately grasped about. Iatsu ran to the door, fearing whether or not his uncle would still be able to harm him.

Looking back, to his uncle as he opened the door, Iatsu ran into something unexpected. A man, dressed in an official's uniform with blade by side was, just prior to Garret opening the door, reaching out to perform that very action himself.

"My, my. What have we here?" The official surveyed the scene, amusement evident in his tone of voice. "It looks like I've come to arrest and interrogate a dead man. How unfortunate." The man once again looked down to Iatsu as Ushio struggled and clawed at his throat, fighting for his life, before losing all motion. Ushio’s body lay there, still and lifeless. A faint smile grew on the man's face. "Well, child. You'll have to come with me, then, while I ask you a few questions. Don't be scared, now, come." Iatsu felt resignation wash over his body as he was herded by the man. More and more, he cursed fate and what had been done to him.

They arrived at the government building, and Iatsu was asked many questions. Records were brought out and looked through. The man who took him there, Takahashi Sato, informed him of a governmental mistake; Ushio had framed Iatsu's parents for collaborating with the group of rebels in order to throw them off of his own trail. The questions went on for what seemed to be hours; where Ushio went, what he did, who he spoke to, when he came back home from wherever he went.

Takahashi Sato had just finished writing down the information he asked for when he looked up again with a smile. "Now, this may be quite obvious, but you are without a place to live. I can sense within you a strong will. Swear fealty to the Emperor, and I will take you in and teach you the strength you will need in order to fight against fate and properly serve this Empire."

The words resonated with Iatsu. A strange feeling crept into his heart as he agreed to serve the Emperor.

The days passed quickly under the tutelage of Takahashi Sato. They soon learned he had the ability to manipulate Magoi, with an affinity towards water. Iatsu's training focused on how to do covert missions for Zou, and to rely only upon himself for power.

Years passed, and Iatsu's training was completed. Takahashi Sato had sent him on his first mission; to join the covert operations in the Reim Empire and cause disorder and dismay in order to slow down their expansion while simultaneously providing a means to assimilate the nation with theirs. Takegawa Iatsu was given the name ‘Garret Kires’ to operate under, and the papers necessary for his identification.

And thus Garret found himself in the Reim Empire, ready to continue his studies while undertaking his duties.



Role-Play Sample: The night's peacefulness was reflected by the silence. Only the sound of the waves by the docks, rhythmically swishing, could be heard. There was, however, a strange tension in the air. As if the city itself was waiting for something to happen.

A condensed haze appeared on the wharf. It was ovular in shape, perhaps eight feet tall and five feet wide. The haze compressed rapidly, letting out a sharp peal of thunder as two individuals stumbled from the center of the now dissipating mist.

"RUN! Go home and make sure everyone is safe!" The man spoke in a rushed manner. He was clearly wounded, as was the teenage boy who was spoken to. The man looked to be a red headed researcher, with a lab coat that was tattered and worse for the wear.

"Father..." The son was hesitant, doubt covering his face.

"Just do it." The tone of the voice was dangerous, and brokered no argument. It was the guttural sound of the father's anger that could be heard in his voice that ultimately sent the boy off. He began floating in the air and zipped out to sea.


The man's head turned quickly. He flew backwards, jumping, with a sudden burst of energy that no normal human could possibly possess. A gentle wave of light washed across his lithe body. "It's here." He mumbled to himself as the wounds he had, not a moment earlier, began to fade and patch up.

No sooner had he spoken than a dark pressure in the air began to assert itself. A black gap, what could only be described as a rent in reality, appeared above where he was standing just before. A pair of clawed hands, each the size of a chair, reached out of that very hole and began to tear at it. They forced it to become larger.

The man brought to bear a floating lance of white energy, preparing for what was to come. It cackled and sparked while it floated over his head, a single beam of light that lit up the docks.

The hole had become large enough for the creature to come through, and it was a horror to behold. A horned beast with a carnivorous set of over sized teeth, as well as a large body as dark and reflective as obsidian, forced itself into their world and let out a shout of triumph. The rent behind it quickly closed, and the creature's gaze turned to the man.

As soon as he saw the creature, he let loose the energy. It zipped directly for the head of the beast and struck. The being did not flinch. Instead, it let loose a deep laugh. "You continue to pester me, small thing." Its voice rolled across the night, shaking the nearby warehouses. The beast's thick leg muscles tensed, and it shot towards the man. The shock waves of the footsteps nearly staggered the the researcher.

Quickly realizing that things were looking grim, the man turned tail and ran. It was soon apparent it was no coincidence he had appeared in this coastal city, as he quickly made use of his earlier positioning to run towards an alley of the overcrowded warehouses.  An external energy coursed through the man's legs, a slight green glow flashed before they became bulky. The man's speed outstripped the creature that was chasing him.

The creature did not care. It barreled through the warehouses and began searching through the destruction for its target. The search was interrupted, though, as the sounds of shouts reached the otherworldly creature. The City Guard had come to investigate the loud noises and reports of a disturbance. "No matter. I will amuse myself with them, instead." The beast continued its rampage, beginning an indiscriminate slaughter. The City Guard stood no chance as the creature shed magical and mundane attacks alike, cutting clean through their armor and flesh with its razor sharp claws.

The researcher had made his escape.

Personality:


Garret is the type that takes time to build trust with. This could be seen most often impacting his relationship with those who believe themselves to be his friend, whereas he only sees them as acquaintances. While this trust is most certainly a difficult thing to ear from the man, as a byproduct of that difficulty it is equally strong.

This lack of trust, however, should not be mistaken for distrust. He does not actively search for reasons to not believe what he is told under normal circumstances, saving that only for those moments in which he is working or speaking to a stranger who seems to have an ulterior motive.


While his ambitions include assisting in the creation of a world where everyone smiles and is content, he surprisingly has a lack of sympathy for others. This is not due to an inability to feel sympathy, but a trained outlook on life due to his upbringing. There are two criteria that normally must be met for his emotional guard to drop. The first of which is that the individual Garret is interacting with is someone he considers a friend, ally or subordinate. The second of which is some catalyst that would provoke strong emotions.


Garret's sense of humor is dry, and the Blue Magician is not one for pranks and the like. Though he most certainly understands them (in the strictest meaning of the word 'understands') he does not truly find them amusing.


Garret treats set-backs as opportunities to improve, believing that they are simply fate's way of telling him what he has missed and where he can work harder. With this mindset, the eventuality and achievement of success is taken in as a matter of course. Conversely, the reality of failure strikes Garret as a personal affront.


Those Garret deems as a hostile opponent find themselves disregarded insofar as their humanity is concerned. The disconnect is another relic from Garret's upbringing; a defensive mechanism for his mental state, to keep him from going mad due to having slain so many men. From that point on, Garret would handle his interactions with such an individual as deemed most appropriate for whatever degree of danger they posed.


Garret applies a similarly rough thought process to those who oppose him in general and, though he would not respond with an attempt to systematically destroy an opposing force, he would get as 'even' as he could against such an individual.


Likes:

Garret is fond of those who are independent. He has grown to respect their ability to complete work, as well as their strength to lead others who are not as strong. Garret believes that those who hold their head high and forge a path forward are worthy of respect for their individual strengths.

He likes power itself, and the idea that surrounds it. Through his meditations and his travels, he has come to regard power as something that will naturally come to him in time, and works to empower those who support him so that they may tackle any problem, together.

Garret enjoys food, though traditional Kou food is his favorite. When he was younger, food was an issue, and he has all the more appreciation for it now. During his stay in the Zou Prison that was hidden in the northern mountains of Reim, Garret found himself even more grateful for a properly prepared meal. He has found it within his ability, however, to eat various foods that many may find quite unappealing when he is hungry.


Dislikes:

Being lost, whether it is in a conversation, in travel or in what to do. Throughout his training, as well as his roles in leadership, Garret has developed a sense of planning and a need for preparedness even in the event of the unexpected. Not knowing what to do gives him a feeling of guilt, as he holds himself responsible for living a structured life.

Garret dislikes faulty equipment and those that intentionally sell it. It is a breach of his trust in a product, and he most often takes it as a personal insult that someone would attempt to pass such an item off.

Through his dealings with Hasan, Garret has been taught the belief that true strength comes from being able to accept what has happened in the past, and move forward to create a better future. As such, he dislikes the sight of those who blame fate, as they remind him of a time where he was weaker.

Having experienced the trials of torture, Garret has obtained a general feeling of disgust for those type of actions.

Garret has a distaste for being inside a small room, alone, with another man whom he does not know.


Aspirations:

Garret has reached the height of power, a pinnacle he is sure is close to the top, if not the top, of his potential. Now that he is there he has found that his greatest desire is to assist in the creation of a land where their citizens smile and have not a care in the world. To these ends, he believes Azix is the man to follow, and has resolved himself to fight alongside the man in whatever battles necessary to cause his dream to become a reality. His first steps have already begun, as he assists Azix throughout his struggles, but Garret continues to prepare himself for the upcoming struggle that he believes awaits them.


Phobias/fears:

Garret has a fear of unknown people of importance, especially those from Magnostadt or a military body. This fear is the weakest of his notable fears, and stems from his desire to be ready for anything that comes his way. This mentality has given cause for him to approach unknown factors with caution, sometimes much more than need be.

The Blue Magician has once had a bad run-in with an old hermit, where the hermit was burning incense laced with hallucinogenic properties. The sights he saw at that time were horrifying, and Garret would prefer to not encounter such an experience again. Such smells, and sights, put the magician on guard.

Garret fears tyrannical leaders. He believes that the world will eventually be ruled under one man, but is scared of the possibility that a man in a position of power would misuse that power and cause irreversible damage. This fear has the greatest potential to bring Garret to an action he would otherwise avoid.

Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Brown
Height: 179 cm
Weight: 80 kg
Appearance:

While not as heavily muscled as a Fanalis, and nowhere near as heavily muscled as an Imuchakk, Garret's martial arts training has given the lean Magician a well defined muscular body. Upon that body are a variety of scars, a legacy from his time in prison, with no scar being very close to another. Garret's silky black hair is long, and comes down halfway to his back. Though the man believes his features to be fairly plain, some would argue otherwise.


Garret wears clothing in the Kou style, though oftentimes it is formal clothes that give him that he finds himself wearing. Though this is what he is most often wearing, he does have some less formal clothing meant for those times when he is off work and enjoying himself.

His 'work clothes' include a tailored suit that covers his body, with the addition of a cloak with a hood and face mask. Some gear that Garret generally takes with him when preparing for combat or an operation would be a pair of bandoliers, one of which goes diagonally across the front of his body, with the second of which working as a belt of sorts. These often hold a variety of objects for the Magician, such as lock picks, smoke bombs, flash bombs, water skeins, poisons and other materials useful for an operative in the field.


Garret's movements, while not intentionally being hidden, betrays a sense of confidence that belongs to a man who has faith in his safety and well-being.

History:
Garret's story begins when he was just a young child, a story he was too young to remember. His parents were believed to be a part of a dissident group within the Empire, and were slain alongside the other rebels in a public execution.

[b]Description:[/b] When cast on land this spell can place pressure on a person through the use of condensed water that is already existing (Ex.: Water Manipulation Technique is flowing around the opponent.) Beginning at the caster's wand/staff, the spell moves away from the caster with their control at a speed of 15 m/s. When it comes into contact with an individual it deals C-Tier damage in the form of crushing damage. The size of this pressure is 1m in height and .5m in length and width, which can be manipulated freely on a 3 dimensional plane.

[b]Description:[/b] With the casting of this spell, the user is able to 'walk through' ice. This begins by the creation of a thin sheen of Magoi which wraps around the caster. This sheen of magoi comes with several commands given to the Rukh. Using a combination of State Transmutation and Water Manipulation Technique, the sheen of magoi first transmutes the ice that the caster is about to touch into water, simultaneously using the control over water to move it behind the user. When the water has passed behind the caster, it is once again transmuted into ice. The spell coats the user at a rate of 15 m/s. The caster may actively chose whether or not a portion of the spell converts the ice over to water as they move forward, allowing the caster to push up against ice even with the spell in effect. This spell may be sustained to continue providing its effects for a longer duration.

[b]Description:[/b] This spell allows up to 10 individuals within 20 meters of the caster to breath under water. It does so by creating a bubble of air around the mouth, nose and eyes that is approximately .3 meters in diameter, absorbing oxygen from the water around it. The bubbles originate from the wand/staff and move to the targets at 15 m/s. This spell may be sustained in order to maintain the effects, however individual bubbles may be chosen to be cut off from the supply of magoi, thus removing them from being sustained.

This changes the sound itself to a sound of the caster's choice. Upon sustain, the caster may interchangeably choose new targets or continue to control the sounds of the previous targets.

The caster creates 2, .3 meter diameter spheres of ice within 1 meter of them. These spheres of ice can move at 20m/s within a 30 meter range of the caster. Once they have positioned themselves, they morph into a blade of ice that is 1 meter in length, .2 meters in width and .07 meters in  thickness, tapering out into a razor sharp blade. They morph and fly at the opponent at 20m/s, inflicting C-Tier piercing damage if they strike. The ice is dependent on the caster's magoi to be created, and therefore once it reaches the 30 meter range it dissipates. Sustaining the spell allows this spell to be cast again.

The user sends magoi out in a pulsation from their body, commanding the Rukh to create and maintain intense water pressure on any water that the pulsation crosses. The pulsation's starting point is created from an orb with a 2 meter radius from the user. The pulsation's effect goes outward in a 7.5 meter radius at 20 m/s from its point of origin. Anything caught in the pulsation takes B tier crushing damage before the effect is gone. If sustained, the effect is removed quickly and those who were in the spell's range take another B tier of damage from a phenomenon called 'the bends'.

The caster creates a 15m diameter sphere that detects and relays all sound data that occurs within it back to the caster. This includes direction, strength, tone, depth and any other variables a sound may be measured by. This information is provided in two ways: through synesthesia, in the form of 'sight', in which the user can see the sounds and their movements with or without their eyes open, as well as in the form of hearing. The user may choose to limit what kind of data is returned at the time of casting. This information travels at a speed of 20m/s in front of whatever sound has entered the sphere. If an ability of higher speed passes through the sphere, the information trails behind the ability.

The amount of water particles that they are able to infuse with this spell is two sets of ice, a 'floor' and a 'ceiling'. The 'floor' and 'ceiling' are both 14 meters in length and 14 meters in width with a total of 2.4 meters deep. The spikes themselves are .2 meters apart from each other, and are .4 meters in length. At the will of the caster, the 'ceiling' is sent down at 20 m/s, stabbing those caught between the 'ceiling' and the 'floor'. This inflicts B-Tier damage to anything caught within it.

[i][size=10]This combination of life, water and sound creates a living body of water that has speech functions equivalent to that of a beast (roars, yells, tweets etc.). This water may freely fluctuate and add on characteristics to its body, all the while remaining in the liquid state. The characteristics mentioned in the prior sentence that they can choose from are limited to those of two different states of water: Solid and Liquid. Examples of these characteristics would be; As hard as ice or as flowing as water. While these characteristics may be exhibited, the state of the creature itself is still within the liquid state of water. These living beings of water will obey and understand the verbal commands of the caster, but are also able to think on their own. Without a verbal command, their primary objective is the protection of their master.[/size][/i]

The caster offers up a part of their body, whether it be blood, hair, a fingernail etc, as the catalyst of this spell. It does not have to be a significant amount; Ex.: 1 drop of blood, 1 hair, 1 chewed off fingernail. This provides a link between the caster and the creation, allowing the creature to be linked with the caster and know that the caster is not an enemy to attack. Since this creature can think by itself, it is able to make a determination on what is dangerous to the caster. Water from the nearby environment is gathered and coalesced into a Kou dragon's likeness, 10-15 meters in length and 1-4 meters in circumference. This forms at a rate of 20 m/s. Due to Flux State, Living Water Magic, it is able to portion out its body into 15 moving sections and give them different characteristics while retaining structural integrity. Furthermore, these 15 sections are slightly mutable and allow the creature to extend parts of its body and form shapes out by 1 meter. Rithux, The Water Dragon, deals B-Tier damage to anything that it forcibly collides with that has such a section take on the solid characteristics of ice. Rithux, The Water Dragon, flies at 20 m/s. This spell may be sustained in the next post in order to reform from any damage dealt to it and in order to deal B-Tier damage in the new post.

[b]Description:[/b] Using one to two hands, the user places the opponent into a blood choke at 20 m/s by compressing one or both carotid arteries, and optionally the jugular veins while not compressing the airway. This keeps oxygen from going to their brain and dealing B tier damage through suffocation. This may be sustained in the next post to re-secure the choke hold and deal another B tier of damage to the opponent.

This spell forms a 1x1x1 to a 5x5x5 block of ice around an object. The ice that covers the object in question keeps it frozen in such a manner that the growth of bacteria and the like is impossible, effectively flash freezing an object and placing it in a state of suspended animation. This ice lasts for as long as it is sustained, or so long as it doesn't melt from natural heat (1 IC week), and does not need to be within the spell caster's range to continue to exist (only to continue to be sustained).
